Teacher reaction: With blogs and other student-teacher collaboration sites it is important that the instructor provide clear instructions for what students must post to the blog site and how they will be expected to participate. A good way to do this is to require that students publish a weekly post to the site where they provide a personal reaction to the course material, readings or a specific question being asked by the instructor. I encourage students to relate the course materials to their own personal experiences as well as link to other resources they find on the web. Open ended questions or writing prompts work best because they help to provide a more student directed focus to the conversations which is key to creating a community learning space.
